Update everyone the insurance company gave me $5,500 for the blazer. They said they added the extra $1000 in because it only had 93,000 miles on it. While we were in new york my dad surprised me and bought me a new to me truck. 2003 Trailblazer LT with 60,000 miles on it, it very clean no problems at all it did have a 1 little dent and a scratch or 2 but nothing bad and i can probably easly buff them out. He payed 9,000 for it. Heres the pics (mods coming soon idk what im doing to it first my stereos going in it thought my subs my headunit amp and speakers)

Well you're one lucky son! hahaha wish my dad would go out and buy me a new truck. Congrats on the new ride though, looks like a great deal he got. I'm not sure I like trailblazers, and I don't think the offroad capabilities are anywhere close to a blazer but hey, atleast you got yourself a new truck!

Man, that sucks to hear! I guess that happened while I was on my trip to texas, so I'm just now hearing about it. That really sucks though! Your truck was one of my favorites on here-well, lets see what you can do to this trailblazer!

lol, x2 on that one. Watch out for them pot holes! Be sure to keep us updated here of over on GMTF on your builds, even though you don't drive a blazer anymore. I'd still like to see what you do with it.

Thats a scary feeling when you lose control.
I found myself in the same situation last year, except my Blazer is lowered and much less roll-over prone. Ended up backward in a ditch. The hitch took the blow.
I hate that for you man. Glad you were ok and glad you got a new truck.

So what exactly happened? You were turning, the truck started swaying, and flipped? Sounds sketchy at best.
